BCFX Road Tour - The Fayetteville State Xperience

Today the Nerjyzed bus rolled up into the home of the Broncos, Fayetteville State. Today was National Day of Prayer so some members the Nerjyzed team held hands in prayer with students on campus during the scheduled prayer time. We also had the bus set up on the campus in front of the student union. Some football players, band members, and some greeks came out and got on board to play the demo. It was also Alpha week on campus so the brothers of Alpha Phi Alpha were busy promoting Alpha week and lighting up the BBQ. Some students loved the graphics. Some students loved the gameplay. Some people were so excited about the company they came back with resumes looking for a job or internship. As always, I would like to say thanks to all the faculty, students, football players, band members and band staff, and everyone else all had a great time playing the demo.

After we left the campus, we headed to Lewis Chapel Missionary Baptist Church to allow the youth of the church to learn about what it takes to make a video game. The parents learned a bunch too. We opened the bus and they had a blast and they did not really want us to leave, but we had to get ready to jump on the road.

Next Stop - Atlanta Football Classic

BCFX Road Tour - The NCCU Xperience

Today the Nerjyzed bus rolled up on the campus of NCCU. We went up on campus and had a blast. We set up right up in front of the student center, they had their own "block" party going on. There was literally a party in the street right next to our tour bus. The football players, the band members, and all the greeks came out and got on board to play the demo. Once again we even had our very own color commentator Donal Ware show up to see the demo of the game. A couple of students came by who said they never played a sports video game before, but because this was a HBCU based sports game, they would buy it and support it. I would like to say thanks to all the faculty, students, football players, band members and band staff, and everyone else all had a great time playing the demo.

We had a blast and did not really want to leave, but we had to jump on the road.

BCFX Road Tour - The St. Aug. Xperience

Well first off let me say there is only one word to describe the St. Aug. Xperience today -- Xcitement!! The students were great. They were loud. They had so much fun. We even had our very own color commentator Donal Ware show up see the latest demo of the game. Now one student in particular claimed he was the Madden Champion of the world. He got on the bus and he started playing, and by the time he got off the bus, he was already claiming to be the BCFX Champion. I would like to say thanks to all the faculty, students, band members and band staff, and everyone else all had a great time playing the demo.

Now to all you students that wanted more information on the interships but did not have your resume with you, please send those resumes in as soon as possible.

Next Stop - NCCU

I guess I was too sleepy after the drive from Norfolk to Durham, but Norfolk St. showed us love as they were getting ready for the Fish Bowl Classic on Friday.

The rain came and went but we kept the crowd nerjyzed with the playing of our original music. It was a good time had by all. The faculty, students, football players and coaches, band members and band staff, and everyone else all had a great time playing the demo.

BCFX Road Tour - The Bowie State Xperience

Wow what a week thus far.


Bowie State University

Today the road tour parked itself on the campus of Bowie State University. I wanted to say thanks to the faculty, football team, band, and staff at Bowie St.. We had a great time and the students really seemed to have a good time with the game. We even had ex-football players coming out wanting to see the game. Some students even said that they wanted to change sports from basketball or track to the football team so they could be in the game. Bowie reached out to us and gave us such a warm welcome, we will try our best to come back again.

Tuesday was a good day at The Real HU!!! We set up our Nerjyzed Bus on campus right near the main gates, and we had a very good traffic flow and the students had a good time. Just wanted to send a shout out to all the faculty, football players, football coaches, and students that came out to see the demo. Special thanks goes out to my chapter Beta brothers of Alpha Phi Alpha and my brothers of the Gentlemen Of Drew Social Club. Not only did they come out and support, but they also helped by spreading the word around the campus.

BCFX Road Tour - The Catch Up


Ok, I know it's been a long time since I was blogging, but since I am out on the BCFX Road Tour I decided to start blogging about the Xperience.


So I am going to post some of the threads I have been updating about the game and then as our tour goes to new places I will update the blog.


MEAC / SWAC Challenge:

I met some of you at the MEAC/SWAC challenge. As you have already read, Nerjyzed Entertainment is an African American Multimedia Company that is making history by creating the first ever HBCU Football Video Game. It will be in stores 11/23/07. Please check us out at http://nerjyzed.com/ or http://bcfxgame.com/

We are also on an HBCU Tour at the moment, we showed a playable demo at the MEAC/SWAC Challenge and the Labor Day Golden Classic this weekend. We stoped by Miles College, just left Alabama A&M, en route to Tennessee State, then LeMoyne Owen, and ending the week at the Southern Heritage Classic on Saturday.

Our trailer made it to YouTube - http://youtube.com/watch?v=NY2GasxthOM

I cannot believe the excitment that is being generated around this game. The bands love the halftime and 5th quarter features. The hardcore gamers are loving the gameplay. And we are only showing two 3 minute quarters worth of playing time for students to play. Students have jumped off the bus and placed their orders for the game at http://www.nerjyzed.com/. Check out the trailer and let me know what you think.
Southern Heritage Classic:

Just wanted to say thanks to all the JSU and TSU fans that came out to play our demo before and after the game.

National Urban League Classic:

Last week, the Nerjyzed Bus went to Knoxville College on Tuesday, Lincoln (PA) on Thursday, Rutgers University on Friday (sponsored by the Rutgers BSA) and Giants Stadium on Saturday for the National Urban League Classic.

Just wanted to send out a shout out to NCCU and ECSU and all the NY/NJ HBCU Fans. By far this was the most people that came on the bus and played the demo thus far as we tour the classics. It was fun had by all...

Next Stops...
